In this high-energy, joy-infused episode of The Live Free Podcast, I sit down with Happiness Expert and author Deborah Mallow to explore how we can all create fewer days that suck—by making joy a daily, doable choice.

Deborah’s journey from the high-stress world of corporate sales and design to becoming a cheerleader for positivity (minus the pom-poms) is both inspiring and hilarious. Her book, 6 Steps to Fewer Days That Suck, offers a refreshing, no-fluff guide to building resilience, shifting perspective, and actually enjoying life—even when it’s hard.

We talk about how mindset shapes everything, why self-care is really about self-worth, and how small steps can lead to huge shifts over time. Deborah also shares how her Daily Decisions toolkit helps people stop waiting for life to get easier—and start dancing through the mess with more joy and confidence.

If you’ve been craving more lightness, less guilt, and permission to celebrate yourself unapologetically, this one’s for you.
